THE STRUCTURE OF HEMOGLOBIN FROM THE BOTFLY GASTEROPHILUS INTESTINALIS
OverviewOverview
Hemoglobins (Hbs) reversibly bind gaseous diatomic ligands (e.g., O2) as, the sixth heme axial ligand of the penta-coordinate deoxygenated form., Selected members of the Hb superfamily, however, display a functionally, relevant hexa-coordinate heme Fe atom in their deoxygenated state., Endogenous heme hexa-coordination is generally provided in these Hbs by, the E7 residue (often His), which thus modulates accessibility to the heme, distal pocket and reactivity of the heme toward exogenous ligands. Such a, pivotal role of the E7 residue is prominently shown by analysis of the, functional and structural properties of insect Hbs. Here, we report the, 2.6 A crystal structure of oxygenated Gasterophilus intestinalis Hb1, a Hb, known to display a penta-coordinate heme in the deoxygenated form. ... [(full description)]
